Chapter 881: Uninvited Guest I

The news spread all over the Void Zone. The Great Light Honorable Lord died in the hands of someone who had the Golden Ray Armor. It was a treasure that made many people crazy.

In particular, a.s.sociating the Golden Ray Armor with the Vestigial Tribe which once swept through the Void Zone made people's imaginations go wild. However, they only kept those thoughts to themselves. Those who had thoughts about it took note about the Great Light Honorable Lord's fate. He was a peak third-grade ultimate existence but he was still killed.

In other words, if they did not reach the fourth-grade Emperor-level or did not have any means of competing with a fourth-grade ultimate existence, they did not dare to have any hope.

Therefore, the entire Void Zone exclaimed in surprise at the emergence of another overlord.

However, there were some people who wanted to go to the Great Light Region to understand the situation. During this time, the Great Light Region had become much livelier. There were numerous first-grade and second-grade ultimate existences, and even a rarely seen overlord. There were also quite a few third-grade contenders.

As the current Lord of the Great Light Region, Tuos had been complaining endlessly. He did not dare to offend these ultimate existences, so he could only say exactly what happened in the Great Light Region. Fortunately, most of the ultimate existences left in a hurry after confirming that the Great Light Honorable Lord was killed by Merlin. A great existence like that was beyond their power to provoke.

“Hum.”

Suddenly, two special figures appeared in the Great Light Region in the Void Zone. One of the figures was a terrifying giant tortoise, and beside the tortoise was a strange man with three heads.

“Lord of the Great Light Region, come out.”

The giant tortoise roared loudly, and the several dimensions in the surroundings shook as if they would collapse. For just a shout to have such terrifying power, he was a third-grade ultimate existence. Furthermore, he was no less frightening than the Great Light Honorable Lord.

Tuos was somewhat helpless. He already felt strained when dealing with second-grade ultimate existences. After all, there was more than one second-grade ultimate existence. However, now, a great existence comparable to the Great Light Honorable Lord had appeared. He felt somewhat humbled as the “Lord of the Great Light Region”.

However, Tuos did not dare to ignore the call. Just look at how terrifying that giant tortoise was. If he did not go, he was afraid that the entire Great Light Region would be destroyed.

“Swoosh.”

Thus, Tuos quickly appeared in front of the giant tortoise and the Three-headed man, and said respectfully, “Are you two here for Wizard Merlin?”

“That's right. Where's Merlin?”

Tuos explained slowly, “Wizard Merlin has already returned to his territory called the Spell Caster civilization. I have a detailed dimension map here. If you want to, you'll be able to find Wizard Merlin by following this dimension map.”

“He has left? Give us the map.”

The Three-headed man took the dimension map, and frowned. Merlin's territory was too far from the Great Light Region, and they did not have any Aurora wars.h.i.+ps unlike the Great Light Honorable Lord did. They had to fly using the power of the natural order. Although the speed was not slow, it would take a long time for them to reach their destination.

“There's no other choice. We'll have to move slowly.”

The giant tortoise and the Three-headed man glanced at each other and immediately turned around, heading toward the route on the dimension map and flying toward the Spell Caster civilization.

“They finally left. That giant tortoise was really powerful!”

Tuos sighed deeply in relief. He could feel that the giant tortoise's strength was incredibly strong. Although it was comparable to the Great Light Honorable Lord, it was very likely that it was slightly stronger than the Great Light Honorable Lord. Fortunately, he had managed to send them away. Otherwise, if they went on a rampage, the entire Great Light Region would be destroyed in an instant.

Just as Tuos was about to leave, a slight chill appeared, almost making him feel as if the power of the natural order was frozen. Tuos was alarmed and quickly looked around.

“Crack.”

There was no time and s.p.a.ce in the Void Zone but now, there was a layer of black solid ice in the Void Zone. Tuos was a second-grade ultimate existence, so he could see at a glance that this was no ordinary ice. It was formed by the power of the natural order.

He immediately thought of a certain terrifying existence. He paled and asked respectfully, “Is it the Honorable G.o.d Blackfrost?”

“Haha, not bad. There are still people who remember me!”

A black-robed figure appeared in front of Tuos. It was the Honorable G.o.d Blackfrost. Beside him was a man wearing a purple robe with purple flames flas.h.i.+ng around his body. Tuos also instantly recalled the special image, and cried in horror, “The Violetfire King?”

Both the Violetfire King and the Honorable G.o.d Blackfrost were overlords who controlled a territory. The Honorable G.o.d Blackfrost, in particular, was extremely old. There was no one older than him among the overlords in the Void Zone.

Rumor had it that the Honorable G.o.d Blackfrost worked under the Darkness G.o.d Emperor in the past and partic.i.p.ated in the war with the Vestigial Tribe. However, that was only hearsay, and only a few people knew about the actual situation. Tuos was a trusted aid of the Great Light Honorable Lord, so he heard the Great Light Honorable Lord mention the Honorable G.o.d Blackfrost and the Violetfire King before. They were existences that absolutely must not be provoked.

That was enough to show that even the Great Light Honorable Lord feared these two. Now, the two of them came to the Great Light Region together. It was definitely because of Merlin.

“Are you two here for Wizard Merlin?”

“That's right. Where's Merlin?”

The Violetfire King asked coldly. Ever since the Great Light Honorable Lord died, Merlin's name had spread throughout the Void Zone. There was almost no one left who did not know Merlin's name.

“Wizard Merlin has long left the Great Light Region and returned to his Spell Caster civilization. If you're looking for Wizard Merlin, I have a dimension map here. You'll be able to find him by following the coordinates on the map.”

Tuos respectfully gave them the dimension map. He did not dare to slight these two overlords that even the Great Light Honorable Lord did not dare to offend.

“That far? He hides pretty quickly. Honorable G.o.d Blackfrost, we'll have to spend some time on the road. Let's go!”

The Violetfire King and the Honorable G.o.d Blackfrost received the dimension map and did not make things difficult for Tuos. They directly mobilized the power of the natural order and left. However, from their tone, Tuos knew that Merlin was truly in trouble this time.

“Before, it was the giant tortoise and the Three-headed man. Now, it's the Honorable G.o.d Blackfrost and the Violetfire King. I'm afraid Merlin's in trouble…”

Tuos muttered in a low voice. Many people were looking for Merlin but the strongest were those four, especially the Honorable G.o.d Blackfrost. He faintly pressured the Great Light Honorable Lord before.

Although Merlin had the Golden Ray Armor, even he would feel some pressure with so many contenders. However, it was none of Tuos' business. Now, he just had to integrate the Great Light Region, and focus his efforts on maintaining it.

…

The Spell Caster civilization was a thriving scene. It had been more than one thousand and eight hundred years since Merlin returned.

One thousand and eight hundred years might be a short period to many foreign civilizations. It was considered nothing at all to ultimate existences. A Slothful Beast would have just fallen asleep. When a Slothful Beast slept, it slept for tens of thousands or even millions of years. Just a thousand or so years was nothing at all.

However, one thousand and eight hundred years was a very long time for the entire Spell Caster civilization. After all, it only took three thousand years for the Spell Caster civilization to enter the Void Zone and start the war with the Atlan civilization. Now, more than one thousand and eight hundred years had pa.s.sed, and the Spell Caster civilization had shown explosive growth.

The first was the Mind Power system created by the Glory Lord. It was not inferior to the Spell Caster system. Since its founding, it had been favored by many Spell Casters who had difficulty constructing Spell Models. Therefore, the Mind Power system had developed rapidly. Currently, countless Mind Power Masters had reached the Seventh-level, and formed a Mind Heart.

There were also many Mind Power Masters who had reached the Eighth-level and the stage of Hallucinating Spells. Furthermore, it was precisely because of these Eighth-level Mind Power Masters that Mind Power Masters realized that they could skip levels. For those who did not have strong Mind Power, it was like being crushed.

For a time, many people wanted to become Mind Power Masters. However, although it was easier for Mind Power Masters to start, when it came to the later stages especially the Eighth-level Hallucinating Spells, and the Ninth-level Illusory Heart, it was extremely challenging.

At present, there were no Ninth-level Illusory Heart Mind Power Masters, and Merlin was the only one with the Tenth-level Illusory World. Furthermore, he had not reached a point where his Illusory World was accomplished yet.

The Mind Power System continued to grow but the Spell Caster system also changed tremendously. Numerous “prodigious” Spell Casters were born one after another. Moreover, the biggest difficulty for a Spell Caster was to construct spells. However, it was not a problem anymore now. It was all thanks to the “Virtual Wonderland”.

In Glory City, when the Glory Lord introduced the Virtual Wonderland and let any Spell Caster freely use it, the Spell Caster civilization developed explosively. In the Virtual World, they could simulate any Spell Model and try to construct it. Unstable ones would slowly be eliminated.

Therefore, in the end, Spell Casters would always find the most suitable Spell Model for themselves. Almost all the Spell Casters who used the Virtual World could try to construct their own Spell Models.

The emergence of the Virtual Wonderland undoubtedly greatly improved the strength of the Spell Casters as well as the success rate of constructing Spell Models. It had truly become a cornerstone of the entire Spell Caster civilization.

As a result, the difficulty for Spell Casters to construct spells had decreased, and many Spell Caster chose to become Mind Power Masters. The two systems did not have any conflicts on the Spell Caster, and could even boost and complement each other.

All these changes were thanks to Merlin. Now, Merlin had become the most powerful contender in the Spell Caster civilization as well as the spiritual symbol of all Spell Casters spread all over the Void Zone. The Great Light Honorable Lord died in the hands of someone who had the Golden Ray Armor. It was a treasure that made many people crazy.

In particular, a.s.sociating the Golden Ray Armor with the Vestigial Tribe which once swept through the Void Zone made people's imaginations go wild.
